I’ve got a long trail race coming up. Fairly non technical trail in dry conditions, packed dirt/gravel, 3k elevation gain. I heard Walms used the bostons at Western States one year. I have some old Saucony Peregrines but I’m kinda debating just using my Boston’s as they are lighter and more responsive. Thoughts?

re: hello doctor

I use road shoes on light trail and gravel all the time. I would say go for it but the only thing I'd worry about is 3k climbing without any extra grip. But if the hills are spread out enough and the ground is grippy/secure enough I'd say go for it.
